This Flesh a Tomb Lyrics
And they lacerate my flesh
A pain so good
Put your hand in mine
Never let go
Never wake up
'cause I'm done with promises
I'm taking blood oaths
Flees like you could kiss my imperfections
My imperfections away
And I would stand
Stand by your side
Until the sun turns the sky
All the colors I see in your eyes
There's enough light in your eyes
To light up our little world
So take me
Take me away
Kill me slowly
I'll never be the same
On everything I am
And I dedicate to you all that I have
And I promise you
That I will stand right by your side
Forever and always
Until the day I die
Never felt so good
I'm losing control
And it's all that I can do not to blackout
And fall into lust with you
Your kisses infect me
The dark gift is loving you
And I want to make you feel the same
So stand by me as we immolate
We can burn in each other's arms
I added a few minor changes, but other than that... pretty flawless translation.
My Notes: (What it could be saying) (What I think it's saying)

guitar strumming outro; end - guitar winds down
I think TheLoveBelow19 is almost dead on with this song. Sounds good to me.
This is a good song..pretty sure its love song
lovebelow fucking annoys me with the whole "html tagging" . but the lyrics are correct ;)
you guys... he's not saying "forever and always until the day I die" Lol. Thats much to Story of the Year. haha. He's saying, "forever and always until the end of time" Listen carefully.
Quick thing about the end. It's
And I feel immortal And I want to make you feel the same So stand by me! As we immolate We can burn in each others arms
The song is about being a vampire, as much of the curse is, and falling in love with a woman. The "And I feel immortal and I want to make you feel the same" is about wanting to make her a vampire. The immolation part (killing for sacrifical purposes by means of fire) is about how they're being burned alive but that moment doesn't matter because at least they have each other (Awwww)
Maxx has it right about the last verse. It goes, " And I feel immortal, And I want to make you feel the same. So tsand by me. As we 'immolate', We can burn in each others arms."
Most of the songs on the album relate to tragic love and being a vampire. However, it struck me as if this song was saying that they didn't want to live forever and they would eventually go out into the sun to have something nice to look at while they died in each others arms.

This song kicks soo much ass, I got the cd because of the song "right side of the bed" which also kicks ass but these Lyrics are so awesome. I'd like to see Chris Carabba or one of those EMO bands try to write a love song like that! (not to offend any emo fans on this board cause' i do like glasseater, taking back sunday, and thursday)
<3 this song. awesomeness.
